Chapter 263 Hidden Disease
Qi Mincheng gritted his teeth and reached out to take back the 1,000 taels of silver. Su Qianqian asked Xue Ke to return the jade pendant to Qi Mincheng:
"For one day, I won't charge you interest. Goodbye, Master Qi... Remember to keep a good account. I'm afraid your brain is not enough. You need to hire a good accountant."
Qi Mincheng, who was getting off the car, staggered and almost fell to the ground. He said angrily, "You should have known that the Su family has no good people except Miaomiao, but you believed him."
Qi Mincheng walked away dejectedly. Only then did Xue Ke know what Su Qianqian was going to do and became even more in awe of her.
…
In the evening, all the Qin family members went to Fushou Hall for dinner. Except for He and Xin, even Qin Hanzhang came back early, but he didn't look very happy.
What's going on? The wound opened? Or is it the cold weather that causes hemorrhoids? Looks resentful! 】
Su Qianqian looked calm on the surface, but she was pondering with the system in her heart.
[You didn't even blink when you were stabbed, but now you feel resentful when you were cut? It's not just the Marquis who has hemorrhoids. Look at the Second Master. When he sits on the chair, he only dares to lower half of his buttocks, leaving the other half hanging. This is what it means to have hemorrhoids!
Also, when you enter the door, even if you try your best to walk normally, the distance between your legs is wide enough for a big yellow dog to fit through, do you understand? 】
The system explained it to Su Qianqian in a logical and reasonable manner.
Just as Su Qianqian looked at the Second Master, the Second Master's face turned red and he hardened his heart. He sat down on the chair with his buttocks, then stood up with a distorted face.
"Look at my memory. There is one thing I forgot. Mother, I will go back to the yard to get something and will be back soon." The second master apologized to Madam Qin and slowly moved out of Fushou Hall.
Except for Madam Qin and Qin Hanzhang and his wife, everyone in the hall lowered their heads and shrugged their shoulders.
"The weather has been getting colder these days. You guys have been fighting in the northern border for years, so you may have some hidden illnesses. Don't be afraid to seek medical treatment. If you are sick, you need to get treatment. Don't delay."
Except for the children who didn't understand, everyone's eyes turned to the Third Master and Qin Hanzhang.
"No hidden illness, no hidden illness, don't worry, mother." The third master forced a smile awkwardly, and the third old lady glared at him.
Qin Hanzhang coughed and said, "Don't worry, grandma. Your grandson doesn't have any hidden illness."
"That's good. Don't be careless. The Qin family's bodies are not their own, but Da Qi's. You have to pay more attention to them. The Qin family's wives also have to take good care of them."
Madam Qin nodded and glanced at the second old lady when she said this. The second old lady blushed immediately, stood up and said, "Mother, I forgot something too. I'll go back to the yard to deal with it and will be back soon."
Madam Qin nodded: "Go ahead."
[The Madam has a keen eye and can even tell who has a hidden illness. The Marquis said that he has no hidden illness, so he must be an obvious illness? But it's hard for him to say out loud that he can't do it. It's the last line of defense of a man's dignity. Without it, he is no longer a man! 】
Su Qianqian shook her head and said "tsk tsk tsk". Those who understood understood. Many people in the audience changed their expressions and could not help but glance at Qin Hanzhang secretly. No, it was a certain part of Qin Hanzhang...
Madam Du's eyes were filled with shock and worry: He was injured in the Northern Frontier, and he didn't dare tell anyone when he returned home? No wonder he was able to remain chaste despite having the most beautiful woman in Xijing. It turned out that he was afraid of being exposed and was making excuses for himself!
Madam Du and Madam Qin looked at each other with worry on their faces, completely ignoring Qin Hanzhang who kept coughing: Stop hiding it and stop Su Qianqian from speaking her mind. If she hadn't said it out loud, everyone would have been deceived!
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have decided one thing through eye contact: invite famous doctors to treat Qin Hanzhang's illness, so as not to delay the birth of his offspring, and not to delay Su Qianqian!
[My lady, trouble comes from the mouth. We can't talk nonsense. The Marquis is treating you well now, but you can't jump back and forth on his bottom line. We still have to go home! 】
The system gave weak and earnest advice.
[I understand this. I won’t say it. I won’t say anything about his incompetence, even if you kill me! And I am a kind, compassionate person... although not a good woman, I will keep it a secret for him! 】
Su Qianqian promised seriously.
Qin Family: You didn’t say it, but we know it was our fault…
Both Madam Qin and Madam Du found the meal boring. After the meal, they asked everyone to go back to the courtyard early, leaving only a few old ladies. No matter what Qin Hanzhang wanted to say, he was driven away.
"I was careless. How could I not be injured after fighting in the Northern Frontier for so many years? I just thought that they were all fine and that the injuries on their bodies could be cured slowly, but I ignored the fact that they might have hidden diseases."
Madam Qin said self-reproachfully.
"This matter cannot be blamed on mother. My wife did not take good care of the second master. She just thought that now that he had returned, she could rest assured from now on. She did not even ask a doctor to take a good look at him.
He has been sleeping in the study since yesterday, and his wife thought he was having some quarrel and was still angry with him. It was really because of her carelessness. I ask my mother to forgive me. ”
The second old lady lowered her head in shame.
"Forget it. He didn't even want to tell you about it between husband and wife. It's normal for you to misunderstand. I can't blame you. It's just that this matter was brought up by that little Tongzi. Otherwise, I don't know how long it would have been kept secret, and how much suffering it would have become if it had become a stubborn disease."
Mrs. Qin felt sorry for her children and grandchildren, and her eyes were red.
"Don't worry, mother. When we return to the courtyard later, I will check Third Master's body thoroughly. No matter where he is, don't think he can hide his hidden disease. If he doesn't obey, I will tie him up..."
"Okay, okay, Xinyue, um... you still have to persuade him with kind words..." Madam Qin was worried about her son. Even if he didn't have any hidden illness, she was afraid that he would develop one.
After discussion, Madam Qin and the three daughters-in-law finally decided to ask the Emperor to send an imperial physician to examine them and find out if they had any hidden illnesses, because the imperial physician's job is the most risky and also the one that is best at keeping secrets.
Of course, Madam Qin had another plan. If any illness was really found, no matter how tight-lipped the imperial physician was, he would report it to the emperor. He would always be touched that the Qin family members left him with a stubborn disease because of him going to the battlefield, and he would think more about what he thought about the Qin family.
Su Qianqian naturally could not have imagined that her words from her heart would lead the senior executives of Fushoutang to decide to conduct a brutal physical examination on the men of the Qin family who had been on the battlefield.
After washing up, Su Qianqian changed her underwear and sat at the round table in the bedroom, looking at the sketch in her hand under the lamp on the table. She marked some places that needed to be added and some places that needed to be reduced in scope with her homemade charcoal pencil.
The room had floor heating, and it was as warm as the homes of her time, in buildings with floor heating, where people would wear short-sleeved shirts and shorts in pajamas even in winter.
When Qin Hanzhang came in, he saw a delicate little head with long black hair tied behind a ribbon. The child was concentrating on writing and drawing at the desk.
